15 million is NOT a low budget!

Rating: Null/10 (5 November 2002)

This movie was remarkably awful, I had high hopes for 28 days later - mostly based around the responses from IMDB - since I don't consider Boyle to have made a single good film. Ok, the opening scenes... well after the Shot of the Pall Mall - didn't anyone notice the black figure walking away up the hill from Jim? I burst out laughing at that point - they spend all that time and money getting a deserted London and there's some guy in the shot! How did they miss that??? Anyway I was prepared to give it a go and was quite enjoying until the daughters speech on the balcony - this was so poor, and I mean very BAD - how can a Director allow such badly delivered (and written) dialogue into his finished film? The only answer to that question I can figure is that what they don't know about directing movies you could fit in the Albert Hall - a deserted one at that.
Oh and why do people consider this movie Low Budget? 15 Million is a whopping amount for a movie. I could list all the bad things but there's no point. Bad bad bad.
